The Meridix Platform support two-factor authentication through the default methods e-mail (SMTP) and OTP (Authenticator apps such as Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator). Additionally, SMS (twilio (SMS SaaS vendor)), and SMPP (smpp) methods are supported options.

The configuration is done through the standard property provider system. The 2FA can be configured on system-, reseller-, or customer level but not on the user level.
The system can and should have at least two providers set (not required). To disable 2FA completely do not set any providers at all.
